In episode 46 of Derms and Conditions, our host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, sits down with Joel L. Cohen, MD, founder of AboutSkin Dermatology in Denver, Colorado. The two discuss how Dr. Cohen incorporated laser procedures and cosmetics into his general medical dermatology practice.

Dr. Cohen takes us back to the beginning of his cosmetics journey and how he strategically chose an IPL device as his first purchase so that he could treat a variety of conditions important to his patients. He then reviews additional pearls and pitfalls as he looked to expand into other devices. These tips range from how to choose a device based on versatility and consumables, to how to counsel patients on what to expect throughout the treatment course. If you are looking to add any amount of procedural or cosmetic dermatology into your practice, you won’t want to miss this episode with a world expert in laser therapy.
